Reply to "Is Travel Ball a necessity?"

Sluggerdad had an interesting way to look at the D3 numbers which I had not really thought about. There are approx 350 D3 schools (I believe not sure about baseball, but lets assume)

Take the top 25 D3 schools in the country with rosters of approx 40. This gives you 1,000 slots that will be pretty competitive, mostly D1 caliber to some degree. 

Total players: 1,000 

Take the next 50 schools which will also be competitive, but not hyper competitive. Some D1 talent mixed in with high performing D3.

Total players: 2,000

Take the next 150 schools which will be slightly better than most top HS programs.

Total players: 6,0000

Bottom 125 schools where most HS players could play.

Total players: 5,000

Gives you an idea of the population and skill level.
